Is it feasible to swap the reflectors? I just installed the bi-LEDs but I still have the original headlight assemblies from my 2020.

You’d have to crack both assemblies open and swap the reflectors and reseal well enough to not let moisture in. I have an extra set of the OEM LEDs I plan on breaking open to make a better looking DRL and mount a high beam in (probably SSC1 or 2, but if it was to just swap the reflectors, I probably wouldn’t bother opening them

I agree, I think it presents a huge risk with a minimal payoff. I'll just reconnect my SS3 driving lights when I need an extra boost.

Really good thread. After reading through a seperate thread comparing bulbs and headlight assemblies (linked below) I am jelous of those with 2021 T4Rs. I just missed out with my 2020 4Runner.

Headlight comparison stock vs others

We all did but at least you got Apple car play. Swapping in 2021 Oem headlights are super easy and cheap.

2020 plus head units can be retrofitted with a harness for plug and play. Its been solid so far in the 2017 model.

recommendations for 2012 LED headlight assembly?

I want to replace my OEM, prefer LED but can live with halogen. There are so many options... is there a consensus here on which ones are quality? I'd rather spend $250, willing to spend $500. TIA

My OEM are fine, as OEM go. I'd just like an LED aftermarket, or at least HID. The ones on FB are OEM.

you can find OEM led headlights from $100-400 range , its just a pin swap at the connection for plug and play. Think oem led started either in 2020 or 21 its a nice upgrade.

Hi all,

Just wanted to confirm my TLDR summary of the simpler upgrade options for my 2014 halogens (I did read the whole thread - just wanting to make sure).
  • Find 2021 headlights, swap the connector, plug and play, and now you have LED low beam, halogen high beam.
  • Find 2022+ headlights, swap the connector, don't activate the shutter, plug and play, and now you have LED low beam, halogen high beam, though the high beam may not be the same as traditional because of a different reflector.

Not interested in getting involved with the LED high beams at this point.

Do I have the above right? Those who have used 22+ headlights with the halogen high beam, do you find that the high beam is less effective than traditional? DO the 22+ headlights come equipped with the same high beam bulb in the halogen location?

I've been watching Facebook Marketplace for a while and have not come across any reasonably priced LED versions yet. Is there a way to determine from pictures if the headlights are LED? Sellers can be vague at times about the year the headlights come from.

Thanks!

How long does the 2021 and newer led low beams last for the oem headlights? From my understanding the low beams are sealed.
